A copy of the address is 'ted lu-it-xritli. US' State has recently passed proureq- t- school ll'lflSl1lll0Il, popularly lznoxvn thc Gilmer-Aikin laws. A primary ective of these lows was to providf' a it of administration lui-wc enoufth for :ry child to have thc ucivztntaszcs of Il tear accredited hierh-school education. Trapt-:arg to me that the creation ofthe tnitt School district provides a proving :und for the Gilmer-Ailtin Foundation tool proftratm, for it combines st-'ferrtl f nmol districts of three counties into one unit. and so affords opportunity to tc'-t the value of the new school prourarn.

From the bccinninu the experiment at Pt-witt has had nn excellent chance to succeed. First. Mr, Paul H. Ptxritt, a rancher and oil igroducer, of Omaha and Lonrzvicxr, cxpiw-sr-ul his init rt-st by sup- pl3.'in': money and advice. 'Then the nca- ple overwht lininxzly voted for consolida- tion. for bond issues, and for the school board composed of the leadinzr citizens of the communities. This board, com- posed of W. C. Stevens, president: Dr. C. J. Wise, secretu1'x': B. B. Brovsni J M. Hampton: R. E. Moore: W. G. Gran- berryg and Jamie Brabhztm. has tziven unstintedly of time and money to make the program succeed. After election, on April 1, 1930. the first action of the school board was to elect Frank C. Bean its the si-kool sugrsr- intendent.
